That is one sweet install - well done. Good to see that someone else has a white engine bay - I was told it would be too hard to keep clean. Looks like your wiring is hidden where mine is standard, bit harder to keep clean. I find keeping the wax up to it on a regular basis helps.
Cheers,
Len

Hey Nukem,
See you have an XA/XB master cylinder- did you have to modify it to fit to the brake booster. These are what Hoppers Stoppers use for the brake kits for Escorts. Len

Brake kit is only calipers, rotors and hubs I changed the master cylinder and put the new booster unit in from another company in QLD. Also had to modify the long mounting bracket lower and adjust rod length.
